That is, if a function returned \fBGNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED\fP or \fBGNUTLS_E_AGAIN\fP. In such a case, you might want to call \fBselect()\fP or \fBpoll()\fP before restoring the interrupted gnutls function. This function's output is unreliable if you are using the same \fIsession\fP in different threads, for sending and receiving. .SH "RETURNS" 0 if interrupted while trying to read data, or 1 while trying to write data. .SH "REPORTING BUGS" Report bugs to . .br Home page: http://www.gnutls.org .SH COPYRIGHT Copyright \(co 2001-2017 Free Software Foundation, Inc., and others. .br Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice and this notice are preserved. .SH "SEE ALSO" The full documentation for .B gnutls is maintained as a Texinfo manual.
